hi all,
just about done. trouble with 5a _e_y_t_ and 27a b_l_ top xword though. hint woud be nice

In 5ac, your T is wrong. Should be L. If you can explain the answer (I can find only 1 word that can fit), I'd be interested. I'm still stuck on 27ac.

Reference 27A, what Charlies do you know? Abandon the place.

Is one answer half a fictional brewery? If so, why is the other half the answer?

The top left is really hard-going (for me).

hello peterm

In 5ac - agree only 1 answer - greenish think drink - pie think diagram.

New to the forum. Hi to all. I think i have this one complete now (with some help from the above posts) except for 20d where i have a musical answer but no idea how to get there. Any pointers?

Thanks, daniwini. I was working on beer, but your answer is better - it's the original partnership, not the more famous latter one.

20D: of course! I was thinking of the wrong partner (with the long name)!

The answer to the clue at 5A is X. The word that goes in the grid is Y.

Do you all consider X and Y as "well-known partners"?

I'm not too happy with that one. Oh well ....

Finding this tough...can anyone confirm that 2D is a normal clue that seems to rely on a misspelling of "rake"?

Yes it's a normal clue. Probably the hardest of the bunch in my opinion. There ain't no misspelling. The words "all about" are vital to solving.
